I THINK I have my brother and an old high school friend talked into it, but they didn't vote for Trump, they voted for Gary Johnson. Which is embarrassing, lol, but not entirely morally bankrupt.

Gary Johnson?

Cristofle

The Libertarian candidate. If you ever get a chance, try to find John Oliver's segment on third-party candidates in 2016, because Gary Johnson is really...something else. LOL.

Might look for that out on YouTube sometime

Cristofle

He once tried to carry on a conversation with a reporter while continually having his tongue stuck out on her, is one highlight. He also had no idea what Aleppo was (therefore he also could not say WHERE it was, lol) and at one point couldn't name another world leader.

stlavin95

Gotta find this, lol

Cristofle

He's SO WEIRD. He once said that since the sun is going to eventually envelop the earth (in billions of years, mind), we shouldn't worry about climate change. ??????????????

stlavin95

What the actual ****?

Cristofle

But then he said we may have to look at like...leaving the planet? LOL. Do you know something we don't, dude?

stlavin95

Maybe? Lol

Cristofle

Colbert had the quote back then - I thought so.



"We do have to inhabit other planets." And then Colbert cracked that he's pretty sure Johnson already does, lol.

stlavin95

Thanks, lol

Cristofle

Jill Stein was also a real treat. I don't know if she's the Green Party candidate again. Look, I'd love to have legitimate alternate parties, but we ain't there yet and flirting with another term of Trump is not the way to get us there, because right now I severely resent the Libertarian and Green parties and will not be listening to anything they have to say.

stlavin95

It really isn't

Cristofle

The Libertarians are maybe a smidge better at this, but overall the way to build a party is from local to county to state and THEN to national. You do not start with President.
